[269] Abel (1)
When you fall asleep and wake up in an unused room. It was nearing noon. After washing her body, unable to resist Heo Ju’s bullying, he went to see Sa Raeb Ju.
[The liquor bottle is this old man’s most prized treasure. To have it taken away with both eyes open!]
‘I heard there’s always going to be alcohol anyway?’
[The problem is that someone else took it. Bring it back right away!]
‘I probably won’t drink it if I keep it anyway.’
[You damn bastard. If you hadn’t had that bottle stolen yesterday and drank with your gray-haired sister until morning. Do you think you woke up alone today?]
‘What do you mean by that?’
[That alcohol was something that made even this old man drunk when he drank it without any hesitation. If you and your sister-in-law had been drinking from the gourd until morning, you two would have lost your senses and done what a drunken man and woman should do… … .]
‘If you say bullshit, I’ll throw you in a bucket of shit.’
[It’s been a while since I heard that threat.]
When Lee Seong-min fired, Heo-ju laughed. At the same time, Heoju quietly kept his mouth shut, as if he didn’t want to go into the poop bucket.
Sima Lianzhu was in his office. After knocking on the door and asking for permission, Lee Seong-min went inside.
Sima Lianju was wearing a different mask from the one he had seen at dawn and night, and He Ju’s gourd was sitting quietly on Sima Lianju’s desk.
“It’s a nice bottle.”
Master Sima Lian opened his mouth.
“There was no end to how much I drank. The taste of the alcohol was better than any other alcohol I had ever drunk. “If this was a fairy forest instead of Sima Lian, I would have drunk to the point of getting drunk.”
“The owner of the gourd is begging me to bring it back.”
“master? ah. It’s a great youkai possessed by you. Was this the item of that great youkai?”
“That’s right.”
“I am not a person with so little common sense that I want to take away what belongs to others. “I’ll give it back.”
Sima Lianju said so and floated the gourd as a bomb and returned it to Lee Seong-min.
As soon as the gourd was placed in Lee Seong-min’s hand, Heo Ju breathed a sigh of relief.
The Great Yokai, which was called a terrible nightmare hundreds of years ago, is having fun with a gourd.
“What do you think about the ink flash?”
“What do you want to say?”
“She is dangerous.”
Sima Lianzhu muttered.
“There is no one more annoying than an honest and stubborn fool. “Don’t they say that if it’s too straight, it’s likely to break easily?”
“Like reeds don’t break easily?”
“Sometimes bending is better. The ink flash will die quickly. Or else despair and break down.”
“… … “There’s no guarantee that will happen, right?”
“If you are blind to beliefs that cannot come true, you will be eaten by yourself and become a monster. Or do you despair of reality before that?”
Sima Lianzhu laughed.
“It just worked out well. “There are customers waiting to meet you.”
“yes?”
“a few days ago. The wizard guild leader came to visit Sima-ryeon. Ostensibly, he wanted to talk about the Red Tower Lord, but that wasn’t the whole reason.”
“What do you mean?”
“The Red Magic Tower has been in Sima Lian for the time being. To be precise, it means that the Wizard’s Guild and Sima Lian have joined hands.”
“What is the relationship between the Murim Alliance and the Wizard’s Guild?”
“The Wizard’s Guild is neutral. It’s no different from a mercenary guild. In the past, the wizard guild was connected to the four factions of Sima Lian, but this has only become more intense. The reason the wizard guild leader came here in the first place was not because of the red magic tower. “It was to meet you and me.”
Sima Lianju took Lee Seong-min down to the reception room. Two wizards were waiting inside the spacious drawing room.
Among them, there was a face that Seongmin Lee recognized. Seongmin Lee looked at Lloyd and opened her eyes wide.
“Mr. Lloyd?”
“It’s been a while.”
Upon seeing Lee Sung-min, Lloyd looked pleased. It was true that she was caught up in an awkward situation because of Lee Sung-min, but she did not suffer much trouble because of it.
Moreover, it happened because of Lloyd’s previous promise that he would receive great help from Lee Seong-min and grant him one favor unconditionally.
“There’s no need to call anymore.”
It was Abel who said that. Seongmin Lee looked towards Abel.
I had never met the wizard guild leader, but he looked familiar somehow. Seongmin Lee blinked her eyes as she looked at Abel’s face. Then Abel pushed the hood of her robe behind her and sat down on her chair.
“Envirus, no, Cain. “Have you ever met my idiot brother?”
“… … ah!”
Although the overall atmosphere and eyes were different, the facial appearance resembled Envirus.
Abel chuckled, looking at the surprised Lee Seong-min.
“I know about what happened between you and my brother. My older brother didn’t want to keep his promise to you. “Because of my idiotic judgment, my body collapsed and I left for the spirit world.”
“yes?”
It was Lloyd who made a sound of surprise at Abel’s words. Although he came here with Abel, he had never heard of Envirus, his teacher.
But Abel ignored Lloyd’s words. His attention was focused solely on Lee Seong-min. This was because Lee Seong-min was the reason Abel came here.
“The one who came back.”
Abel opened his mouth.
“In a world other than this one. You died, but for some reason you returned to the past. “This must be true, right?”
“Can you see it too?”
A warlock has the eyes to see the soul. If you are a high-level warlock, you can see through his eyes that the causality of Lee Sung-min’s soul is distorted.
However, contrary to Lee Seong-min’s guess, Abel shook his head.
“No, I am not a warlock. “It’s just that not only warlocks can see souls.”
Abel mumbled and put his hand into his arms. What he took out was a grimoire with a pure white cover.
The moment I saw it. Lloyd’s face turned white. He jumped up from his seat and opened his mouth wide.

“Uh, Gries… … .”
“Why do you keep freaking out?”
“Why on earth is Gries… … No, why, guild leader? Do you have Gries?”
“Because I am the wizard guild leader.”
“Gries belongs to the wizard guild, not the guild leader! “Does the Senate know this?”
“These are people who have given up on their desire for a secret wish. The old men in the Senate are the ones who are wondering what to do to keep their flaccid dicks erect and have stimulating sex. It’s those f*cking bastards who stick wands into their assholes, creating added pleasure and stimulation through magic. Why should I ask permission from those bastards?”
Abel shot back in a bitter tone. Lloyd couldn’t refute those words and pursed her lips. Abel chuckled as she looked at Lloyd like that.
“what. Actually, not all elders are crazy about s*x with sticks up their assholes. But it’s not completely wrong. Do you know what the most popular topic is among senators these days? It is a s*x chimera that allows you to experience the ultimate pleasure. Do you know what I mean? “It means putting an old dick in a vag!na made of slime.”
“stop… … stop!”
“We can’t just destroy everything.”
Abel looked at Lee Seong-min, ignoring Lloyd, who was tearing his head and sighing.
Lee Seong-min’s expression did not look good when he suddenly heard a bad story about the wizard guild senators.
“This is a grimoire called Gries. “Do you know?”
“… … I know it’s one of the grimoires the wizard’s guild has. “The grimoire and twin that Kim Jong-hyun ran away with.”
“It seems like you have basic knowledge. Do you know why I brought this up?”
“I do not know.”
“To talk about the end.”
Abel said that and handed Gries over.
Lloyd, who was sighing, looked at the pages of Gries being turned with his eyes wide as if he had never done that before.
Like grimoires, gries are items kept by the wizard’s guild, but little research has been done so far.
“Are you interpreting Gries?”
“Only some. Gries is a nasty and incomplete grimoire. The same goes for grimoires, too. “It cannot be used in ordinary ways.”
“Then how…” … ?”
“What Gries requires when activating magic is lifespan.”
Abel answered with a slightly unfazed expression. Lloyd’s face turned white at those words. He asked, hesitantly stepping back.
“no way… … Guild leader. The reason they brought me here was to use Gries as a sacrifice… … ?”
“Sit down and don’t talk nonsense. “If you are using magic for me, why would you ask for your life?”
“then… … ?”
“Don’t be scared because you are using my life.”
Abel said that and stopped turning the pages.
The mana in the air stirs.
Seongmin Lee glared at Abel with wary eyes, not knowing what on earth he was going to do.
“What are you trying to do?”
“Putting a barrier. So that the apostle of the apocalypse cannot intervene.”
Abel answered like that and started chanting. Then, Gries was enveloped in pure white light.
Sima Lianju, who was standing next to Lee Seong-min with his back to him, muttered as he watched Gries glowing and Abel continuing to chant.
“This is still the case. I never thought of the wizards as being that great. But today, that prejudice has been broken. “Our insight was limited.”
It was reasonable for Sima Lianju to say that. The enormous magical power flowing from Abel, who was controlling the power of Gries, was stronger than any wizard Lee Seong-min had ever seen.
Envirus was also a person at the top of the field of magic, but the magic power that Abel now shows was much greater than that of Envirus.
“You’re spending your life… … Isn’t it too dangerous…? … ?”
“No problem. I know full well how long I have left to live. “If you live this long, you won’t die.”
After finishing chanting, Abel answered. Although she said she had put up a barrier, she hadn’t changed much. But Abel looked a little tired and sat down on her chair.
“It will last long enough for us to talk.”
“… … Apostle of the End… … “Did you say that?”
“I’m sure you’ve felt it a few times too. Or you may have seen people who were trying to tell you this story stop talking because they felt death.”
I’ve seen a lot. In that way, Lee Seong-min could not reach his curiosity.
“This barrier, although imperfect, blocks the intervention of the Apostle of the End. That means I can tell you what I know.”
“Are you saying you know everything?”
“I don’t arrogantly say I know everything.”
Abel muttered that and looked at Sima Lianju.
“Do you know why I called Lianju here?”
“It seems like he thought the power of this position would be helpful.”
“That’s true too. “Ryeonju, you are one of the most powerful people among humans.”
“I guess that’s not the whole reason.”
“I know you are having an affair with the Fairy Queen.”
Abel answered.
“The end is near.”
Abel’s gaze returned to Lee Seong-min.
“Lianju, your power and your relationship with the Fairy Queen. I’m hoping it’s all to prevent the apocalypse. “I’m not sure, though.”
“Are you saying it’s fate too?”
“I think it is fate, at least as long as it is related to you.”
Seongmin Lee asked a question, and Abel answered. He frowned and continued his words.
“You died in your past life and somehow returned to the past. The future you ‘remember’ and the actual future that occurred in this world will be quite different. “What do you think is the reason?”
“… … me.”
“okay. It’s you. If you lived exactly like you did in your previous life, nothing would have changed. It probably went just as you remember. But you didn’t act like that. “Because you have changed, the world you remember has changed.”
Lee Seong-min is already aware of that. This world has changed in many ways from the future that Seongmin Lee remembered.
This is because Lee Seong-min, who returned to the past, lived a completely different life. Such small changes spread far and created large distortions.
“You were a distortion, a variable, and a singularity in the predetermined fate of this world. From the moment you returned to the past, the fate of this world became entangled in your existence.”
“… … What does that have to do with the end?”
“You are an observer.”
Abel continued speaking again.
“From the time you returned to the past. You have become an observer of the fate of this world. Thanks to you, the observer, taking different actions, the flow of fate changed. “After you passed the point of death in your previous life, the world that changed because of you moved on to a world you ‘didn’t know’.”
Abel muttered that and laughed.
“okay. You returned to the past. Live on and live in the world after your death. “A world unknown to you, the observer.”
Abel’s smile grew louder.
“That is the end.”
